1998 Toyota Camry mileage: 59,000. Not really a repair question, but would really appreciate your advice. My mother's 1998 Camry was just totaled. We're looking at a 2003 which has 4 cylinders. Mom's 1998 Toyota Camry was 6 cylinders. They're telling her that 2003's with 4 cylinders have as much power as old 6 cylinder Camry’s. I found that the 2003 4-cylinder has 157 horsepower. I can't find how many horsepower the 6-cylinder 1998 had. How many horsepower did the 6-cylinder 1993 Toyota Camry have?

It is obvious from your question that you are concerned about performance. Comparing 1993 vehicles to 2003 vehicles regarding horsepower is like comparing apples and oranges. Because of advancements in the engines and transmission designs of newer model cars, the performance will more likely be the same or possibly better when comparing the 1993 6-cylinder to the 2003 4-cylinder. Gas mileage will probably improve also in the2003 model. We suggest that you drive the 2003 and see if you are happy with the performance.
